This “Vino de Pago” is made with 65% Tempranillo and 35% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes that are exclusively from the Gazaga vineyard. The vineyard has very poor soil and south-facing slopes and terraces, which gives this wine its unmistakable flavour.
Bright and intense red in colour, it has an expressive, fruity, oaky bouquet with background notes of cocoa. The palate is well-structured, fleshy and fruity with well-assembled, balsamic round and ripe tannins.
The wine is fermented at 26C, macerated for twelve days and aged in new oak barrels.
ABV 14%
The family run Bodegas Lezaun is located in the Navarre region of Basque Country.
The winery is small by any definition, but small by Navarre standards where giant co-ops are common. The first written mention of Bodegas Lezaun goes back to 1780, where documents described the winery as it functioned at the time. Since then, the wisdom of winemaking and tradition has passed through several familial generations to its current incarnation today. The Lezaun land clearly has historical and personal significance and is likewise treated with care and respect. Bodegas Lezaun has the main goal is to produce organic wines that reflect the personality of the vineyard.
